The US military, in particular the Navy, has been destroying life on Earth by systematically damaging and degrading the integrity of the Pacific Ocean. Since World War Two our dominance over the Pacific has been a strategic "asset" in controlling and plundering the planet.

Since the demise of the Soviet Union and ther onset of Peak Everything, President Obama has doubled-down on a strategy that centers on further destruction of Earth's cradle of life - it's called the Pacific Pivot.

RIMPAC 2014 is only one symptom of the on going destruction. Starring the USS Reagan Carrier Strike Group leader, RIMPAC is merely the "General Audience" trailer for for much darker plans.

Remember that the USS Reagan and other ships in its Carrier Group were damagedf by "hot particle" radiation a few miles of Fukushima Daiichi when three nuclear reactor melted down after exploding. over 100 crew members were seriously injured. The Reagan was in dry-dock for 18 months of decontamination. The crew of the ship has been replaced and the Reagan is scheduled to be permanently stationed in Japan after its role as RIMPAC 2014 fleet leader. Such is the black humor of the US Navy.

It's clear the US government, its military, and nuclear technology contractors it hires care little about our well being or life on Earth.

For a view of how bad it has been historically take a look at what we did here near the Hawaiian Islands only decades ago - It was a series of nuclear explosions off Johnston Atoll, a mere 700 miles from Kauai County, Hawaii.

The video below describes a series of nuclear tests in 1962 from Johnston Atoll. US B-52 bombers dropped atomic bombs into the ocean as well as Thor rocket carried nuclear bombs detonated in the atmosphere. These "tests" lit up the night sky in Honolulu.

The Johnston Island area segment of Operation Dominic I was divided into two parts, the Fishbowl high-altitude tests and open sea airdrop tests. Much of the film was devoted to the failures that occurred in the high-altitude program. In one test, a rocket was destroyed because it was believed to be off-course, but post flight data revealed that it was on the correct trajectory. Another rocket blew up on the launch pad because of a sticking fuel valve.

This caused the high explosives in the weapon to detonate, resulting in the destruction and contamination of the launch pad and surrounding area. In another instance, a rocket had flight irregularities stemming from the wrong configuration of a flight plan. The nuclear device detonated directly over Johnston Island, instead of 26 miles away as planned.

To improve obtaining test data, the Thor launch vehicles (rockets) also carried and deployed three scientific test pods. These reentry pods contained diagnostic equipment, and shortly after they were deployed, the nuclear weapon was detonated. The pods splashed into the sea and were retrieved by helicopters.

The successful rocket-launched, weapons-effects, Operation Fishbowl high-altitude tests conducted in the Johnston Island area in 1962 were as follows:

Mahalol Nui Loa for documenting the war crimes against humanity and our environment and our wildlife. Our most precious things we have are our Land, Air, Water, we need to learn to come together and fight to protect them, not contaminate them. Love is the answer, not War,
